When you visit Prague, you’ll recognize the backdrop of many popular movies. Ron Perlman of Hellboy and Blade II, both of which were shot in Prague, credits the abandoned warehouses left behind by communist leaders. The fact that a castoff old factory building in Prague costs the studio significantly less than, say, a movie studio in Los Angeles, definitely contributes to the city’s appeal. But Prague also offers something that can’t be found anywhere else: an old-world quality kept intact by the narrow, still-cobbled streets and impeccably restored facades - a bustling Prague street can be transformed into one of eighteenth century London almost instantly.
